Personal watercraft has been banned on Lake Travis during the 2010 Labor Day weekend.
The use of personal watercraft, wet bikes, motorized surfboards and similar devices will be banned on Lake Austin over the Labor Day weekend beginning at sunset today, September 3, 2010.
Officials say the annual ban, which will be lifted at sunrise Tuesday, is needed to ensure the safety of the large number of people who will be using the lake over the holiday weekend. Officials urge boaters to call 911 to report the reckless operation of boats or emergencies.
